Gwyneth Paltrow: still at the best lunch table

You remember last week when I mentioned that Gwyneth Paltrow interview with Jon Stewart on The Daily Show a few years ago and at the end, he talked about how talking to her was like being in the lunch room in high school and staring longingly at the best table? Click here to watch it.

Here are more pictures of her last night at the Tiffany event in New York (I posted some last night, click here if you missed it) hanging out with Sarah Jessica Parker and Kate Hudson. (You think Mrs Timberlake tried to get in there?) She is popular, my G. Still. And often with some of, most of, your favourites.

As you know, she is one of RDJ’s favourites. We’ve seen this throughout the Iron Man 3 tour. Even though she called him a “wimp” for complaining about the suit. Pepper gets to wear the suit this time. Here’s how G described the experience:

“I thought it was going to be terrible because in the first two movies Robert would put on the suit and start sweating. He’d have a nervous breakdown and would meditate and cry. He was in hell. So, I was like, ‘Wow, I’d better start mentally preparing myself for the suit.’ And I put it on and was, like, ‘This guy is a wimp, it’s really not that bad.’”

She would tell him that to his face, too. They have that kind of relationship. Where he acts like he does, and she shakes her head and tells him he’s an idiot.

And did she tell Madonna that she has better abs? That was the headline yesterday - Gwyneth Paltrow dismisses Madonna, it’s true that their friendship is over!

Well, yeah, they’re not so tight anymore, not at all...but I’m not sure her comments went down the way everyone is saying they went down. It happened during a game of “Gwyneth or Sinneth”. Click here to watch the video.

The best video, however, is this one below. G is speaking French again at a presser with RDJ. First of all, that outfit is amazing. If you don’t have half an hour to waste on G and RDJ, skip to the 8:30 mark and ... wait for it. G is tired so he comforts her. And before you all start writing your own blind items, the dude is just tactile like that. There’s nothing more to see than what you’re seeing. And then, because he’s so random, he decides to make the interview about her shoes just to exasperate her. God, he really is the best. (Thanks Virginie!)
